Technological Team in Iran Makes Device for 3D Display of Surgical Site to Surgeon
"We are an interdisciplinary team of specialized fields of bone marrow, medicine, medical imaging, polymer engineering, and chemistry and we have produced a device that displays the surgical site to the doctor in 3D,” Mohammad Sadeq Tavalli, the managing director of Narges Fanavaran Fars stationed at the incubator center of Islamic Azad University’s Shiraz branch, said on the sidelines of the 23rd Exhibition of Research, Technology, and Techmarket in Tehran.
“This product makes the specific surgical site in 3D and provides it to the surgeon based on the CT scan images and the surgeon's opinion before the operation and familiarizes the doctor with the disease’s conditions from different angles through pre-planning, and as a result, it increases the speed of operation and decreases bleeding in the patient,” he added.
"The device even gives the doctor the opportunity to take images before the surgery and check the patient's so-called cosmetic changes in the skull after the operation,” Tavalli said.
The 23rd Exhibition of Research, Technology, and Techmarket was inaugurated at Tehran Permanent International Fairgrounds on December 10 and wrapped up on December 14.
Islamic Azad University participated in the exhibition with 300 research and technological products, and five knowledge-based products have been manufactured in the incubator center of Science and Research branch.
